Isolation and assessment of the in vitro anti-tumor activity of smenothiazole A and B, chlorinated thiazole-containing peptide/polyketides from the Caribbean sponge, Smenospongia aurea.

ABSTRACT: The study of the secondary metabolites contained in the organic extract of Caribbean sponge Smenospongia aurea led to the isolation of smenothiazole A (3) and B (4), hybrid peptide/polyketide compounds. Assays performed using four solid tumor cell lines showed that smenothiazoles exert a potent cytotoxic activity at nanomolar levels, with selectivity over ovarian cancer cells and a pro-apoptotic mechanism.

Isolation of Smenopyrone, a Bis-?-Pyrone Polypropionate from the Caribbean Sponge Smenospongia aurea.

Project description:The organic extract of the Caribbean sponge Smenospongia aurea has been shown to contain an array of novel chlorinated secondary metabolites derived from a mixed PKS-NRPS biogenetic route such as the smenamides. In this paper, we report the presence of a biogenetically different compound known as smenopyrone, which is a polypropionate containing two ?-pyrone rings. The structure of smenopyrone including its relative and absolute stereochemistry was determined by spectroscopic analysis (NMR, MS, ECD) and supported by a comparison with model compounds from research studies. Pyrone polypropionates are unprecedented in marine sponges but are commonly found in marine mollusks where their biosynthesis by symbiotic bacteria has been hypothesized and at least in one case demonstrated. Since pyrones have recently been recognized as bacterial signaling molecules, we speculate that smenopyrone could mediate inter-kingdom chemical communication between S. aurea and its symbiotic bacteria.

Smenamides A and B, chlorinated peptide/polyketide hybrids containing a dolapyrrolidinone unit from the Caribbean sponge Smenospongia aurea. Evaluation of their role as leads in antitumor drug research.

Project description:An in-depth study of the secondary metabolites contained in the Caribbean sponge Smenospongia aurea led to the isolation of smenamide A (1) and B (2), hybrid peptide/polyketide compounds containing a dolapyrrolidinone unit. Their structures were elucidated using high-resolution ESI-MS/MS and homo- and heteronuclear 2D NMR experiments. Structures of smenamides suggested that they are products of the cyanobacterial metabolism, and 16S rRNA metagenomic analysis detected Synechococcus spongiarum as the only cyanobacterium present in S. aurea. Smenamides showed potent cytotoxic activity at nanomolar levels on lung cancer Calu-1 cells, which for compound 1 is exerted through a clear pro-apoptotic mechanism. This makes smenamides promising leads for antitumor drug design.

A joint molecular networking study of a Smenospongia sponge and a cyanobacterial bloom revealed new antiproliferative chlorinated polyketides.

Project description:The bloom-forming cyanobacteria Trichodesmium sp. have been recently shown to produce some of the chlorinated peptides/polyketides previously isolated from the marine sponge Smenospongia aurea. A comparative analysis of extracts from S. aurea and Trichodesmium sp. was performed using tandem mass spectrometry-based molecular networking. The analysis, specifically targeted to chlorinated metabolites, showed that many of them are common to the two organisms, but also that some general differences exist between the two metabolomes. Following this analysis, six new chlorinated metabolites were isolated and their structures elucidated: four polyketides, smenolactones A-D (1-4) from S. aurea, and two new conulothiazole analogues, isoconulothiazole B (5) and conulothiazole C (6) from Trichodesmium sp. The absolute configuration of smenolactone C (3) was determined by taking advantage of the conformational rigidity of open 1,3-disubstituted alkyl chains. The antiproliferative activity of smenolactones was evaluated on three tumor cell lines, and they were active at low-micromolar or sub-micromolar concentrations.

Isolation and structural elucidation of euryjanicins B-D, proline-containing cycloheptapeptides from the Caribbean marine sponge Prosuberites laughlini.

Project description:Three new cyclic peptides, euryjanicins B (2), C (3), and D (4), have been isolated from the Puerto Rican marine sponge Prosuberites laughlini, and the structures were elucidated by chemical degradation, ESIMS/MS, and extensive 2D NMR methods. When tested against the National Cancer Institute 60 tumor cell line panel, all of the purified isolates displayed weak cytotoxicity.

Chalinulasterol, a chlorinated steroid disulfate from the Caribbean sponge Chalinula molitba. Evaluation of its role as PXR receptor modulator.

Project description:Chalinulasterol (1) a new chlorinated sterol disulfate was isolated from the Caribbean sponge Chalinula molitba. Its structure was elucidated using mass spectrometry and NMR experiments. The possible role of chalinulasterol as modulator of the PXR nuclear receptor was investigated but, in spite of the close structural relationship with the PXR agonist solomonsterol A (2), it showed no activity. The structural requirements for the PXR nuclear receptor activity were discussed.

Two new aromatic polyketides from a sponge-derived Fusarium.

Project description:In our natural product screening program from marine fungi, two new aromatic polyketides karimunones A (1) and B (2) and five known compounds (3-7) were isolated from sponge-associated Fusarium sp. KJMT.FP.4.3 which was collected from an Indonesian sponge Xestospongia sp. The structures of these compounds were determined by the analysis of NMR and MS spectroscopic data. The NMR assignment of 1 was assisted by DFT-based theoretical chemical shift calculation. Compound 2 showed antibacterial activity against multidrug resistant Salmonella enterica ser. Typhi with a MIC of 125 µg/mL while 1 was not active.

Antibacterial Polyketides from Antarctica Sponge-Derived Fungus Penicillium sp. HDN151272.

Project description:Three new polyketides, ketidocillinones A-C (1-3), were discovered from the extract of an Antarctica sponge-derived fungus Penicillium sp. HDN151272. All the structures were deduced by spectroscopic data, including NMR and HRESIMS. The absolute configuration of compound 3 was established by using ECD calculation. Compounds 1-3 can be slowly oxidized to quinone form when exposed to air. Ketidocillinones B and C (2 and 3) exhibited potent antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeurigenosa, Mycobacterium phlei, and MRCNS (methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci) with MIC values ranging from 1.56 to 25.00 µg/mL.

Compounds 1 and 2 showed a mild to moderate cytotoxic activities against KB-31 and FS4-LTM cell lines. Only aplysinin A (2) exhibited cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cells.
